Come of Age


Another one of my animations I never really got to share here on my blog.

Tried out this free tiger rig and practiced on my quadruped animation more. Also wanted to animate the face of the tiger and do a bit more facial acting with it since it had a nice setup. Thought of what better audio to use than the voice of one of the most popular tiger characters ever, Shere Khan from The Jungle Book.

Haircut


I never really got to share this animation here on my blog, so I'm doing so now.

I wanted to test out this free Judy Hopps rig from Zootopia. Creating interesting mouth shapes was a challenge but it was fun overall.
